Simply the Best

by Kylan Fowler at Citysearch

I've always been a fan of steaks and salads. I've heard my friends talking about the place and thought of trying it myself and I did. They really have a wide variety of choice. Their stakes are really tasty and tender. And the salads are just as appetizing plus the atmosphere and the ambience are really good.

Amongst the best Steakhouses in Chicago

by 10ECStud at Citysearch

If you're looking for a great prime steak in a very elegant atmosphere inside the Loop, look no further. Rosebud serves prime steaks and much more... I was impressed witht their menu which had many more options than most pure steakhouses that I am used to in the area. My wife and I shared the Lobster Cocktail, split a Caesar Salad and each had a Steak (Bone-in Filet and NY Strip) and some Asparagus. It was a filling experience but I would highly recommend everything we tried. We went on a Sunday night and it was nice and slow so we received expert service and lots of attention from the entire staff. Overall a wondeful experience.

• Pros: Atmosphere, Service, Attention to Detail
• Cons: $$$$

Above and beyond all expectations!

As we entered the doors of ROSEBUD PRIME, the staff immediatlety acknowledged our presence and we were made to feel as though we were the most important people there. Our coats were taken and we were escorted to our table. As the chairs were pulled out for us we once again experienced the feeling that the well trained, professional and experienced staff were there to make our visit one to remember!

We were very impressed by the staff, but what about the food and atmosphere? We can't begin to communicate all of the textures and flavors that we had the pleasure of enjoying that evening.

I LOVED the Mussels Shallot and Chardonnay as my appetizer, the mussels were cooked to perfection and the presentation was outstanding. We both decided on a Caesar Salad for our next course, and were pleasantly surprised that it was tossed tableside for us. Again, the salad was crisp and the housemade dressing was seasoned just right. And then...the Petite Filet and New York Strip! I can safley say that these steaks were the best either of us have had. They melted in the mouth but held the flavor and meaty enjoyment that all steaks should. There is not enough room to talk about the wine selection, but needless to say everything went beyond our expectations. We have been to many fine restuarants, both here and abroad, and I have never taken the time to review them. This made such an impression from begining to end, that I want as many people as possible to enjoy the same experience as we did. I will have to savor the memory of this visit until we go back at Christmas...if we can last that long! All around top notch place!

• Pros: Food, Ambience, Service
• Cons: I can't find any cons

Melt in your mouth

by Trishamac28 at Citysearch

I picked this restaurant because it was close to the Lasalle Bank Theater. It was like a blind date that worked our wonderfully. The service was excellent. The food was so so good. I ordered the petite fillet and it was cooked to perfection, melt in your mouth tender. The sides were generously portioned to share. Food was served hot. For desert we ordered the creme brulle and the fruit. Again, enough for all of us to share. I liked that we were not rushed and could enjoy the meal. And the wait staff were available when needed but did not hoover by our table. Well worth the trip from the suburbs. Our tab was about $85 per person. Well worth it for a special ocassion .
